Rejected communications will not be returned. a Volume XXXIT............... deka sanronean New York, Saturday, June 29, 1867, EUROPE. By goneral cable telegrams from Rome, Florence and Paris, dated on the 27th and 28th of June, we have in- wresting reports of the progress of the great Papal Denvocation in the Eternal City, of the military situa. Sion in Italy, and the Paris Exhibition. There were four hundred and fifty Catholic Arch- bishops and Bishops and about thirty thousand priests (a Rome on Thursday, The Pope held a public Consis- tory, at which he delivered an allocution on the situa- tion of the Church and warned tts ‘‘enomies"’ of its im- mense earthly power. The American prelates were troated with marked at- tention by the Holy Father, who granted them an audi- ence, at which he referred publicly to the great progress, religious and civil, of the United States. The American bishops presented the Pope with two hundred thousand dollars mm gold, and an elegant model of the yacht Hen- riotta, made of silver, which contained fifty thousand dollars in gold coin stowed away below. The Pope lifted tho model from the case, saying, “Von é vapore,” (“it ls not a steamer”), which was translated by some as ‘it i not all vapor’? which comes from America, His Holl- neas had only “pleasant worda,’’ he said, for all Ameri- cana. Archbisbop Purcell, of Cincinnati, has been assigned a place on the Pope’s right hand at the St, Poter's Day celebration. The Pope expressed bis wish to call a council of the biahops. The cable news report from London, dated yesterday evening, announces the loss of the United states steamer Sacramento in the Indian waters—a fact which was pub- lished in the Heraup several days since from official sources in Washington, An English government commission reports that the Fenian convicts are well treated in the State prisons. Omar Pasha’s claims of victory in Creto are confirmed by Turkish reports, Four ports of Japan will be opened to foreign commerce on the Ist of January, Consols closed at 9434, for mopoy, in London. Five- twenties were at 73 in London and 77% in Frankfort. The Liverpool cotton market closed unchanged, with middling uplands at 11d. BreadstuM™s and provisions without any marked alteration, MISCELLANEOUS. Reports from Mexico etate that Escobedo has threat. ‘ened to depose Juarez should he not order the execution ‘of Maximilian. The liberals occupied Tampico on the Och inet. The 15th of May is hereafter to be observed fas a national festival in honor of the victory of the lib- erals over Maximilian. But little business was transacted in the Constitutional Convention yesterday. Tworeports were presented from the Suffrage Commuttee—one by Mr. Greeley, signed by ‘the majority of the Committee, admitting colored men to the exercise of the elective franchise, and the other ‘by Mr. Cassidy recommending that tho question of ex- 4ending the franchise to colored mon be submitted to the people to be voted on separately from the rest of the oonstitution. Hon. Charles J. Folger was chosen Presi- dent pro tempore of the Convention. A rumor was current in New Orleans yesterday that General Sheridan is tobe removed and General Lovell ‘H. Rousseau is to be appointed to the commacd of the district. ‘The President and party left New Haven on Thursday might and passed through the country on their route Domeward without making any stoppages until the cars arrived at Baltimore. Here they were met by Governor Swans, who formally weloomed them to the State. The President made a brief speech from the balcony of his hotel to a large and enthusiastic aadience, and was fol- lowed by Mr. Seward, who delivered a somewhat lengthy and partly humorous address. To-day the party will sail for Anvapolis, where they will be received by the Constitutional Convention and by the citizens qonorally. The United States Commissioner in Richmond, Va, yesterday decided to send Mark Downey to the United States Court, to be tried for perjury in registering against the provisions of the Alexandria constitution. The Judiciary Committee held another session in ‘Washington yesterday, It is reported that they have completed a report, but will make no recommendation as te what action should be taken. The trial of Jobn H. Surratt was resumed yesterday morning at Washington. Lewis Weichman was the only witness brought upon the stand, and after the ‘prosecution had concluded their examination, the de- fence opened the cross-examination which had not con- cluded when the Court adjourned. Two letters of Sur- Tatt’s wore exhibited, but they contained no allusion to the conspiracy, except a wish that the “devil would take pity’? upon President Lincoln. Wm. P. King and Abram Owens were executed at Fraoktin, Kentucky, on yesterday morning for the mur- dor of one H. King, a brother of one of the executed men. When being conveyed to the gallows a most ex- traordinary spectacle prosented itself in the shape of a Procession, headed by a brass baud, and this barbarous exhivition was®rendered more revolting by the con- demned men being formally introduced to the specta- tors and indulging in long speeches, Indian hostilities on the plains appear to have broken ‘out afresh, We have reports of an attack on Fort Wal- face on the 21st inst., in which @ number of soldiers of tho Third infantry and Seventh cavalry were kilo ‘ wounded. Eleven men were killed in a Oght near Fort Harker on Monday last. Great excitement naturally * provails along the border and on the lines of travel at these bloody demonstrations of the savages, ‘Tho tweifth annual regatta of the Hoboken Yacht Club took place yesterday, Winds of a baffling nature accom- panied the vessels throughout the whole race. When off Bedloe'’s Island, a violeat squall from the westward Caused many of the racers to take in ali sail, The Cor- nolia won the prize in the first class, but the second class did not make a race. ‘The first match game of base-bal) between the Mutual Club, of New York, and the Irvington Club, of Irving- ton, N. J., came off at the latter place yesteriay before the largest crowd assembled on a ball-fleld in this section eo far this season. After a sharply contested game, the Mutuals were victorious by a score of 17 to 16, in a full game of nine innings, Some pickpockets who were on hand started a few Cghts among the crowd, in the course of which several persons were more or less hurt. ‘The Workingmen’s Convention, which has been in eession at Albany during the week, yesterday adjourned bine div. A® accident occurred yesterday on the Frie Railroad, near Elmira, by which the engineer and firemen were kiled bat no passengers were injared. Decrees of divorce were rendered yesterday by Mr. Justice Ingrabam in the Supreme Court in the cases of Rose Poreire against Moses Poreire, and Matilda &. All- Grit agaiost Joseph F Aldritt. The State civil courts, of this county, adjourned yes- terday for the midsummer vacation, which extends Mhrough Joly, August and September, The exceptions @ this are in the cireatte of the Supreme Court, which by lew cases to dispose of from yesterday's calendar, We have files from Bermuda to the 14th of Jane, but the news matter ie quite unimportant.

The Approaching July Session of Congress. The first session of tue Fortieth Congress terminated under a joiat resolution that the two houses meet again on the first Wednes- day in July next; but that, unless there be a quorum present on that day in each house,” the adjournment shall be continued to the regular first Monday in December. The object of this resolution was, first, to provide against the apprehended contingency of some embarrassments in the execution of the recon- struction laws from the President’s unqualified hostility +o those measures ; and, secondly, to enable the members of the two houses, by gen- eral consent, to dispense with the proposed July session, should intervening events justify this alternative. It was the general belief, from intervening events till the middle of June, that this conditional July session would go by default, so satisfactorily was the work of reconstruction progressing under each of the commanders of the five South- ern military districts. But then, with the promulgation from his Attorney General of the President’s interpretation of these reconstruc- tion laws, 80 widely at variance with the manifest intentions of Congress, a aniversal conviction, North and South, immediately fol- lowed that there would not only be a quorum in each house on the 3d of July, but some new measure or measures of legislation so positive an@'clear in their provisions as to admit of neither evasion nor misconstruction by Presi- dent, Catinet or Attorney General. Such was the general impression throughout the country, even in the remotest corners of the South, as we are assured from the reading of Attorney General Stanbery’s defining the metes and bounds of the Southern military district commanders. All doubts upon the subject are now at an end. It is fixed that there will te a quorum in each house on Wednesday next, and as the two houses are already organized we may safely aseume that their first procoeding will be the despatch of a joint committee to the White House to inform the President that Congress is in session and ready to receive any communi- cation he may have to submit. In response to a committee of this sort at the opening of the March session, although the initial session of the Fortieth Congress, the President had nothing to say. He had no con- gratulations to offer, nor any recommendation orremonstrance. He had defined his position in his veto message against Reconstruction bill No.1, and the new Congress, without much loss of time, proceeded to define its position in Reconstruction bill No. 2,or the supple- mental bill to No.1. Now, ia his execution of these measures, the President, in diverging from-the line of march adopted by the War Office and the five military commanders, can- not very well escape the duty of some ex- planation to Congress. The very presencé of Congress, under the circumstances, will involve an accusation of infidelity against him, in fail- ing to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” We think it most probable, there- fore, that he will have a message to submit in vindication of his recent course, under the opinions of his Attorney General, as next in order to an opinion from the Supreme Court. Bat, with or without a message from the Executive, we may safely assume that the treatment of his Attorney General's opinions by Congress will be “short, sharp and deci- sive.” General Sheridan will be applauded, and General Pope, General Sickles, General Schofield and General Ord will be endorsed as good and faithful officers, and we dare say that the existing laws, as executed by them respeo- tively, even to the removal of refractory civilians, will be explicitly reaffirmed by Con- gress. Beyond some such stringent explana- tory act of reconstruction, embracing, perhaps, an ultimatum to the rebel States, we expect little or nothing from this extraordinary session. The meeting of a legislative body in the northern temperate zone, in the “heated term” of July, is suggestive of a revolutionary crisis, and July, as attested in the revolutionary chapter of France, the United States and other couttries, is the most revolutionary month in the calendar. There will be enough, however, of revolution in a single reconstraction bill for the ensuing session of Congress. The Presi- dent’s construction of the existing laws has placed the ten rebel States completely in the hands of the republican party, and Congress, after carefully providing to hold those States in this position, may safely adjourn till October or December. The impeachment committee are said to be actively at work again in examining witnesses and in hunting up evidence for the conviction of Andrew Johnson of certain “high crimes and misdemeanors” demanding his removal. But Mr. Johnson need not be alarmed. He is too useful to the republican party where he is to be removed, and there are men who think that substituting the Hon. Ben Wade for the rem- nant of his term would be jumping out of the frying pan into the fire. Nor do we apprehend even a serious agitation in July of the confisca- tion scheme of “Old Thad Stevens.’ A speech from the old man will serve till the next ses- sion the purpose of the radical electioneering game among the Southern blacks. Greeley, we fear, is asking more than will be conceded, in asking that the door be closed between them and their expected free farms before their votes are secured in all the processes of recon- struction. To sum up, we expect that the busi- ness of the impending session will be limited to an explanatory reconstruction bill and some increased appropriations of money to carry out the law; that the impeachment com- mittee will ask an extension of time for their investigations, and tbat the extension will be granted in order to keep the rod euspended over the President's head; that “Old Thad” will be indulged in a speech or two on confis- cation, but that bis bill will be laid on the table or postponed, say to the first Monday in December next. A bill which will secure in their reconstruction and restoration to Con- gress the ten excluded rebel States as republi- can States will do for the July session, and such a bill may be expected. From this new point of departure all the remaining old party lines of demarcation will be blotied out and the work ofa new and comprehensive recon- struction of parties and party issues will bogin. Slow Telegraphing. It is curious that in New York it should take more time to transmit and get an answer to a message by telograph than it takes to accomplish the same thing between he metropolis and places a hundred miles distant. An ordioary messenger will even do it quicker. It takes a couple of hours to get a reply to a despatch sent from our office by telegraph to Union square, He must be a very slow mes- senger indeed who will not cover the ground in little more than half the time. The managers of our city telegraphs require waking up. They have fallen into a magnetic sleep. Leulisiana—General Sheridan and ox-Giev- orner Wells. Through his man Friday President Johnson has spoken, and the result is the issue of orders, based on the opinion of the Attorney General, which threatens to form the basis of a new rebellion. Among the first to enter the new field of anarchy which the President throws wide open is ex-Governor Wells, who, from our New Orleans advices, will declare the acta of General Sheridan in deposing him to be ille- gal, as well as all the measures of the new gov- ernment instituted by the military ruler of that district. As well might we hope to see the particles of the earth cling together with two centres of gravity as to see two distinct and equally powerful governments ruling in one State. A measure that one dictates the other revokes, and vice versa. Lither the militesy commander, appointed under the Reconstruc- tion act, is the sole ruler, responsible to the general government for his rule, or clse the State government is intrusted with the recon- struction, and the military commander is. a nonentity. General Sheridan, in his straight. forward, soldierly action, is, tortunately for his country, the man for the position, and his acts have been so consistent, so clear-headed and so dictated by good judgment, unbiassed by party spirit, that the whole common sense of the country can but uphold him in the course he has taken. His answer to the President with reference to registration proves this; it was perfectly respectful and in accordance with the President's letter to him; for in that letter the President gave him liberty to use his own judgment in the matter, and he did it. For that reason the radical Johnsonites set up a howl because tuere is a man in the employ of the government who does not toady to the administration. The whole of Louisiana, and especially the Texas district of Sheridan’s department, is likely to be thrown into the greatest confusion by this tearing down action of the executive power. Everything was working smoothly before this order following Stanbery’s opinion tore down the reconstruction fabric level with its founda- tions. Fortunately, these rest in Congress. Generals Sickles, Pope, Schofidld—alle were building up the national edifice and bringing order out of chaos, President Johnson evi- dently thought the reconstruction was going on with too muoh rapidity, and by his last act’ proves, what be has proven ever since ho has occupied the Presidential chair, that he is the worst enemy the South ever had, and does more against a healthy restoration of the country to its normal condition than can be repaired in the next five years. Under these circumstances it isan absolute necessity that Congress assemble and define at once the posi- tion of the military commanders, If we are to have two governments of equal power in each of the Southern States it is better todivide still farther and have fifty, or as many as there are iahabitants in each State. Above all, Con- grees should, at its coming session, teach the President that he is appointed to execute the laws made by the representatives of the people, and that he is not, as he imagines himself, the Congress, the Judiciary and the President—all in one. The Oecmvocation at Rome-The Herald's Special Cable Despatches. The feature of the cable news this morning is the graphic and interesting special report from the Hzratp’s correspondent at Rome of the proceedings at the consistory on Thursday last, the great gathering of prelates in the Eternal City, the presentation to the Pope of the princely gifts from the United States, and all the sayings and doings of his Holiness. The substantial sum of two hundred thousand dollars in gold coin was handed over to the Pope by the American clergy, through Bishop Wood, of Philadelphia, together with a beauti- ful silver model of the yacht Henrietta, the victor in the ocean yacht race, large enough to contain gold pieces to the amount of fifty thousand dollars. Pio Nino, we are told, was in excellent spirits, and while he was examining the model of the Henrictia and her solid cargo exelaimed, with a gracious smile, “It is nota steamer!” This handsome congribution from his children in the United States may well have put the Pope into a good humor; and if the American clergy will add to the handsome gifts of their congregations such sound advice to their spiritual head as the Heratp has from time to time tendered him through its columns, they will help to keep his countenance perpetually wreathed in smiles, and will enable him to enjoy the liberal voluntary offerings of the faithful in peace, without being pestered with the cares of state or alarmed by the machinations of con- spirators. Woman Saffrage and the State Constitutional Convention. The advocates of woman’s rights bave met in full force at Albany. Time that might be better employed has been wasted listening to the platitudes of Mrs. E Cady Stanton and other members of the muscular sisterhood. Surely we have had enough of this. The mem- bers of the Convention could not well refuse the fair orators a hearing. In doing so they have done enough; and the public will be glad to see that the Suffrage Committee have dis- missed the petitioners with as much grace as possible. Let the members of the Convention give themselves to their proper work.. It is reform we want—an improved judiciary, and the concentration of power and responsibility in the executive branches of our State and municipal governments. The call for reform is loud and imperious. THE WORKINGMEN’S ASSEMBLY. Ataany, Jane 28, 1967.

It is etated that they have completed a report, excepting any recommendation as to what action should be taken. The report is very voluminous, comprising « full ab- stract of the testimony taken by the committee of the Present and that of the last House, The National Debt Statement. It ig probable that the monthly statement of the Public debt will not be published for the month of June. The cloge of the fiscal year largely increases the work of Preparing the official statement, and time must be allowed for returns tocome in from all parts of the country. The August statement, it is eaid, will disclose ‘# considerable reduction in the public debt. Arrival ef Congressmen. Representative Munger, of Obio, arrived here to-night, A letter has been received in this city from Senator Rameey, of Minnesota, announcing that he will be in Washington next week. Damage to the Crops in the South by the Re- cent Rains. Information received here from Richmond this even- ing states that the recent tremendous rains in North Carolina have produced an unprecedented amount of damage in the agricultural districts, Hyde county is sald to be, aa it were, one broad field of water, and some Of the fincet plantations in Edgecombe are reported to be from one to two feet under water. In Branswick the damage is fearful. The rice plantations have suffered seriously, part of the crop baving been washed entirely ‘away. Soveral large rice flelds near Wilmington are several fect deep in water. Tho latest accounts atate that the damage done to the planting interest throughout the State is fearful to contemplate, The cotton crop is almost entirely annibilated, fertilizers and manuros having been completely washed out, while the corn crop has sustained very serious injury. The conse- quences of this fearful disaster to the agricultural inter. est will be most terrible, the energy of the farmers hav- ing been directed to bring about an abundant yield this year. The only course left to pursue is to push ahead and plough up the remnants of the damaged crops, and endeavor to replant as far as possible with corn. At best it ig a very great risk, and the yield will depend entirely om the seasons, Colonel S, L. Fremont, Superintendent of the Wil- mington and Weldon Railroad, reports the damage done by the rain to the Tarboro branch of the road will reach $10,000, Operations are for the present impeded on that part of the line. Security of National Bank Note Holders. Gonorai Spinner, United States Treasurer, has ad- dressed an official letter to the cashier of a national bank in New Hampshire, in which he etates:— After the failure of a national bank all its relations ‘ape changed; as a bank it has nothing more to do with ite notes, whether mutilated or perfect. The United States, as the legal endorser, in effect becomes the maker of the nete, and undertakes to redeem all the motes of such defunot or defaulting national banks as may be presented at this office for payment. This obil- gation is conclusive upon the government, whether the securities lodged tor the papers with the Treasurer are sufficient or not. I, ia ef become not only the cashier of such defaulting jonal bank, but become the trustee of all its creditors, and am compelled to see that the interests of its creditors and of the government are fully protected. Such notes stand in the same rela- tion to the public as notes issued by the United States, and will be sul to the same rules in their redemption. Departure of Madawoe Juarez fer Mexico. Mrs, Juarez, wife of President Juarez, left tnis city this morning for New Orleans, on her way home. The Health of Secretary Browning.

The Revolation in Candia. ‘Tho report of the Turkish victory in Candia is not ‘Oredited at the Greok Legation here. Its latest accounts from the seat of war were favorable to the Greeks, and there was no news of the confirmation of Turkish suc- esses, since none bas been achieved. According to official information received to-day at the Greek Legation the utmost enthusiasm prevaits in Athens on behalf of the Oretes. The City Council of ‘Tripolie, im the Morea, decided to name one of the pub- lio squares after Demalrecopoaia, a native of that town,” the heroic commander of the Convent of Arcadi, in Candia, which was blown up by its garrison, who preferred death to slavery. The Greek Parliament passed «a law authorizing the government to lease out the draining of the takes and marshes to Greek or foreign companies on highly profitable terms. The Lake of Copias alone will, if drained, become a source of immense riches, Greece poaseases.a vast area of fertile soil which has remained overflowed and uncultivated under the mismanagement of the Turks, but which under this new law promises to add hundreds of millions to the national wealth of Greece. . Professor Kveppen, a distinguished Danish scholar, for several years the secretary of the late Librarian of the King of Greece, has arrived in Washington on business connected with his official position.
